Step 1. Preparation

Step 2. Installation

Important!Add a VPS service to a separate physical box
reserved only for VPS. We don't recommend to add other services to this box like web, mail etc.

Starting with H-Sphere 2.5 RC 2, a new physcical VPS box is added to H-Sphere cluster within the standard procedure
of adding servers and services (first add a physical Unix
box via the cp, then add a logical vps server to it, then run the installation script).

Note: This procedure will install the following core VPS related packages on the VPS host server:

FreeVPS kernel:freevps-1.5-8

FreeVPS tools:freevps-tools-1.4-6

H-Sphere VPS:hsphere-vps-1.5-1.noarch

The packages may vary depending upon the operating system.
For a full list of VPS related packages installed on VPS box, please refer to VPS Server
per supported operating systems in H-Sphere 2.5 RC 2 Package
List.

Step 3. Edit Boot Loader Configuration File

Edit this file (/boot/grub/grub.conf, or /etc/lilo.conf) so its default variable is set to take newly
installed kernel as the boot image.

Important! Keep the old kernel image settings, so the system can start if anything goes wrong with the new kernel
installation.
